A#m G# A#m
A# shanty man's life is a wearisome one
G# A#m
Though some say it's free from care
F A#m
It's the swinging of an axe
G#
From morning 'till night
A#m F# A#m
In the forest wild and drear
A#m G# A#m
Transported as we are from a lady so fair
G# A#m
To the banks of some lonely stream
F A#m
Where the wolf, bear, and owl
G#
Give a terrifying howl
A#m F# A#m
And disturb our nightly dreams
A#m G# A#m
Oh sleeping at night in our bunks without cheer
G# A#m
While the cold winter winds do blow
F A#m
But as soon as the morning
G#
Star does appear
A#m F# A#m
To the wild woods we must go
G# A#m
Had we ale, wine, or beer our spirits for to cheer
G# A#m
When we're in those woods so wild
F A#m
Where a glass of whiskey shone
G#
When we're in the woods alone
A#m F# A#m
For to pass away our long exile
G# A#m
Shantying, I’ll give o’er when I landed safe on shore
G# A#m
And I’ll lead a different life
F A#m
No more will I roam
G#
but contented stay at home
A#m F# A#m
With a happy little smiling wife
G# A#m
A# shanty man's life is a wearisome one
G# A#m
Though some say it's free from care
F A#m
It's the swinging of an axe
G#
From morning 'till night
A#m F# A#m
In the forest wild and drear
A#m F# A#m F# A#m
There you go, enjoy!
